That is not a casual trail upgrade. A tire this tall belongs on a machine that has already been built for it, and it turns heads every time it rolls off the trailer.<\/p>\n<p>This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wildboaratvparts.com\/assassinator-mud-tires-44-12-24-american-force-k05-coyote-black-forged-wheels\">Assassinator Mud Tires 44&#215;12-24 on American Force K05 Coyote Black Forged Wheels<\/a> package comes as a set of four with lug nuts and center caps included.<\/p>\n<h2>A tire for the deep stuff<\/h2>\n<p>Assassinator is a mud tire, and at 44&#215;12-24 this one is about as big as most machines will ever see. A tire this tall carries the frame and differentials high above the ground, so the machine can stay on top of deep ruts and holes where smaller tires bottom out. Mud tires are built to clear themselves and keep biting in sticky ground, which is exactly where a build like this lives.<\/p>\n<p>There is a reason big-tire builds are so popular in the deep South. Bottomless swamp holes and river bottom mud reward height above everything else, and a 44 keeps the belly of the machine out of the soup.<\/p>\n<h2>American Force K05 in Coyote Black<\/h2>\n<p>The wheels are American Force K05 forged wheels in a Coyote Black finish. American Force is a name truck owners know, and the forged K05 brings that style to the side-by-side world. The dark finish looks right under a big black mud tire.<\/p>\n<p>Forged wheels are a common pick on big builds because riders want a strong wheel under a tire this heavy.<\/p>\n<h2>What a 44-inch build needs<\/h2>\n<p>Bolting on a 44-inch tire is the last step of a big build, not the first. Riders running this size generally have:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A large lift, portal gear lift, or both, for suspension and fender clearance<\/li>\n<li>Upgraded axles and drivetrain parts to handle the extra leverage<\/li>\n<li>Clutching set up to turn a much heavier, taller tire<\/li>\n<li>Strong brakes, since stopping that much rotating weight takes more effort<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Skip any of those and you will be fixing parts instead of riding.<\/p>\n<h2>Fit it the right way<\/h2>\n<p>Match the wheels to your hub bolt pattern and check offset and clearance at full steering lock and full compression. With a package this size, a phone call is cheap insurance.
